"Concordia transferred 300,000
dollars to the credit of California
Baptist College upon purchasing
the option to buy the 15 acres of
surplus land," said Donald Evans,
vice president for business affairs.
"The executive committee of
the board of trustees authorized
transfer of this amount to the current fund as income for the fiscal
year 1990, which ended June 30,"
Evans continued.
The balance of the sale price
($4,900,000) will come to the
college upon close of escrow on
or before November 30, 1990, a
portion of which will be used to
defray current debt. The remainder
would be placed in some form of
endowment.
Prior to purchase of its option,
Concordia and Cal Baptist signed
a driveway and emergency access
easements and maintenance agreement. The agreement provides
that the college and Concordia
will mutually agree on the design
and construction of a common
driveway on Magnolia Avenue.

Previously, the college and
Concordia worked on a sale/
giveback agreement for the parcel, but found lenders were adverse to such a complex venture.
"The current real estate transaction stands on its own now, separate from any donations Concordia may make to the college,"
says Randy Hall, owner of Con
cordia Corporation.
It is anticipated that construction could begin within the year,
contingent upon necessary city
approval.

Students experience transition
By Andy Brown
Staff Writer
Entering a college environment for the first time can be a
terrifying challange to face. The
administration, faculty, and staff
recognize this difficulty and have
gone out of their way to make
the transition into California
Baptist College as smooth as
possible. The main emphases of
a new students life here are registration and orientation.
When students begin registration for the first time they are
usually overwhelmed by the extensive lines, closed classes, and
lack of financial aid. The lines
were definately on the short side
this year and the registration process on the whole was much
quicker than in years past. One of
the main reasons for the speedy
registration this year was due to a
good preparation process on the
part of the individual offices. The
Financial Services office, for example, begin preparing for registration by contacting students early so they would have their
financial aid information done before they went to the office.
The main reason for the lines
that did exist were due to breakdowns in the computer system.
Fortunately, however, the administration is looking into purchasing a new computer system that
will hopefully avoid the breakdown problems.
The problem of closed classes
was less prevalent than in the
past. The situation of having important general education classes
fill up was slow enough for
counselors to react accordingly.
The greatest fear facing any
college student is undoubtedly
money. The Cal Baptist staff
tried their best to help ease this
problem as best they could.
Within the framework of their
guidelines they tried to work with
each student according to his/her
individual needs. Jackie Valcourt
expressed the college's common
goals by saying, "What can we
do for the students?"
The best way Cal Baptist made
the college transition easier is
through orientation week. The
highlight of this was undoubtedly
the three days spent on retreat in
the San Bernardino mountains.
The worship was led by Fortress,
with Dr. Swindall as the key
speaker for the weekend. Most of
the students were taught the ways
of typical CBC spirit by playing
the Outrageous Olympics. Many
lives were changed on this trip
and most who went felt it was
highly successful.
It was a great comfort to all
new and returning students at Cal
Baptist to have been greeted by
our administration, faculty, and
staff with much warmth, love,
and kindness.
